Jivamukti Yoga is one of nine
internationally recognized styles of Hatha Yoga. Developed in 1986 by
Sharon Gannon and David Life, its distinct style integrates chanting,
asanas, music, meditation and practices of devotion into a vigorous
physical practice with a foundation in the ancient mystic philosophies of
the East. Jivamukti incorporates these yoga practices into the modern
lifestyle, without losing sight of the universal goal of the practices -
liberation. It is a blueprint for incorporating the physical and spiritual
aspects of yoga into our modern lives and awakens in the practitioner a
need to protect the earth, the environment and all the animals and plants
that share the planet with us.
Jivamukti Yoga features five tenets that
are incorporated into every class:
Scripture: study of the ancient yogic
teachings, including Sanskrit chanting.
Bhakti: acknowledgement that God
realization is the goal of all yoga practices.
Ahimsa: a non-violent, compassionate
lifestyle which emphasizes ethical vegetarianism and animal rights.
Nada Yoga: the development of a sound body
and mind through deep listening.
Meditation: connecting to that eternal
unchanging reality within.
The Center has two locations in New York
City which feature weekly Kirtan, Satsang and Meditation gatherings. It
has become, as New York magazine put it, "the spiritual, social
...nexus of downtown New York," and hosts a wide range of workshops,
lectures, concerts and performances by internationally renowned spiritual
teachers and artists.

"David
and Sharon have inspired and encouraged us to think of
yoga not just as a system of exercises but as a door to
the infinite."
